A pipeline that transports oil at 40°C at a rate of 3 m3/s branches out into two parallel pipes made of commercial steel that reconnect downstream. Pipe A is 500 m long and has a diameter of 30 cm while pipe B is 800 m long and has a diameter of 45 cm. The minor losses are considered to be negligible. Determine the flow rate through each of the parallel pipes.

Fluid Dynamics

The study of the flow of gases and liquids, usually in and around solid surfaces, is known as fluid dynamics in physics and engineering. Fluid dynamics, for example, can be used to evaluate the movement of air through an airplane wing or the surface of a vehicle. It can also be used in ship design to increase the speed at which ships pass through water.
